Have you checked the float inside the tank?

Thats strange. Maybe you need to connect a seperate ground to the gauge. Apparently if everything else works with the aftermarket gauge, all of your tank internals are good. Have you cleaned the ground wire location at both ends? I'm no expert, just trying to offer suggestions.

I'm in the Lansing area. A bit of a drive from Detroit, but do make trips to the East side from time to time.
